This was just a test but yes, I’m could file the plate, I could do a lot of items at one with.

Thanks and yes, he is a Ham Radio OP.

When I try to unload, I use to get an error. Did they fix that with the latest update? I checked and you’re correct, thanks for the correction.

Here’s the link to the mount: makerworld.com/en/models/66386#profileId-69709 But I’ve changed since this video to the XTouch screen. Just Google it, it’s pretty nice.

Yes and the USB port keeps it charged.

Yes, the unload and load functions are available through the display.

That is very difficult and time consuming. You would have to pause in the slicer at every color change to do that. I would suggest getting an AMS for that.

There’s a bunch available, search printables and Thingiverse too.

The app doesn’t support iPad but I’m using an iPhone.

The app downloaded onto my ipad mini 2 ok. I have not used it on a printer yet though.

@@3dthailandhappy3d-thailand46 Maybe they now have an iPad app. I’ll have to look. Thanks

Now I'm seeing people having success with the handy app. I really feel I don't need three devices to control my f****** printer. It should all be able to be done through the printer. Not the printer and a combination of going to my computer and then getting my phone. 13 days left to decide if I want to keep this p1p.

@@Eric_In_SF You don’t have to use any app, you can do it all through the printer. Sorry you’re having this issue, I’ve not had any problems.

@@1SpudNuts1BigNasty-DIY I just trying change filament but it already change the options noe it show option "Jump to Layer" so I try to pause and change from the printer and it said "Unable, Printer busy"

I havent tried through the handy app yet though

Yes, the app does make it much easier when doing the load and unload feature.

@@1SpudNuts1BigNasty-DIY was trying it through the load/unload options in the settings and I was getting weird inconsistent results. it would say it cant, machine is busy, but then it would heat up to 250, purge, then go down to 142 and hang, requiring me to cancel the print. I got it to swap filament once with the load/unload options and the nozzle went back down to 190 but when it went back to print, it didn't extrude anything.

@@moswald14 What you do is click “unload”, it then moves the hotend to the back while it heats up. It then moves to the front and then back and that’s when you grab the filament and pull while it unloads. To load, click load and then it does the same thing but you need to push in the new filiment until it stops before clicking “load”. Then when the hotend move back to the poop chute, you give the filament a little push for an inch or so and the extruder should grab it. Then wait for the app to come up with a pop up to retry or done, click retry until you see the new color coming out and then click done. It should push some more, cut and empty the poop chute and you’re ready to print.

@@1SpudNuts1BigNasty-DIY that's what I did and it would say something like "cannot perform task, printer busy" I forgot, but it would do the purge anyway and hang. I got success finally by manually retracting and purging the filament. you can manually press the cutting arm before you retract for a nice cut end

You should get a pop up that ask to retry or done. You keep hitting retry 3 times to ensure the new filament is grabbed by the extruder and then you click done. Once it’s completed you close the pop up and then resume printing.

If yours is a P1P, I opened a ticket with Bambu Lab and they think it’s a firmware issue that should be fixed with the next release. I’m also seeing a layer shift now with any filament change.

@@1SpudNuts1BigNasty-DIYIs changing filament mid print working now/still? I’ve only had my P1P a few days, got some more colours ordered and looking forward to trying this. I’ve agreed to print something for a friend, they’re expecting single colour. If I can have it switch it’ll blow their mind.

@@Edramon53 works great but only doing it this way (changing completely at a layer). Trying multi color throughout a layer would be horrible because of all the pausing. I’d get an AMS if you plan on that. I’m getting one for sure.

@@1SpudNuts1BigNasty-DIY Cheers, will just be putting text on top of the print (originally hoped to do a logo, but the logo was too complex for OnShape). I decided to make a cut out in the model, so I can print the insert in a separate colour from the model, then use this technique to put the text on. OnShape is what I know best, but since the insert is such a small and simple part I might see if another cad program can handle the logo graphic better.
